gsettings doen't work in cron with Gnome3.16

Hi,

For months I used to change my desktop backup image with this command :
# gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri 'file:////home/christian/Images/IMG_2216.JPG'
More precisely, this line was generated with a Ruby program.

For the tests I put it in a file named Test4.sh
This file works fine.

When I put it in a cronjob, nothing happens since Gnome 3.16. Here is the line :
12 * * * * env DISPLAY=:0 /home/christian/Shell/Test4.sh &>> /home/christian/toto

I'm using the croonie package.

What changed with Gnome 3.16 ? Any idea how to process ?
Thank's for your help
